    This thread is an absolute must. Nice job for starting it. Can't wait for the next issue, the cover alone is awesome.



    I was watching The Book of Eli last night and at the end, when they show Solara (Mila Kunis) w/ Eli's blade, it reminded me of Forever.

    I do need to ask what issue is it at because i know that the trades(i usually pick up trades because i'm impatient) say about 15.

    Edit i found out its currently 3 unless it gets canceled at 15. I might check it out.

    Issue #13 is the next one out in a couple weeks. I strongly suggest jumping on. There's nothing else like this book in comics.

    Good choices. Ravine is really good too.

    There's a hardcover of the first 9 issues due out next month. Plus it's supposed to have a load of the world-building and backmatter notes that are absent from the paperback editions. It would be, IMO, an excellent place to jump on.

    Thanks and I have to agree with you there.
    That cover is really awesome. Can't wait for the next issue.

    Tonight or tomorrow I will reread all issues again. I always do that with comics that I really enjoyed and I often notice certain things and details only after repeated reading.

    I'm a huge fan of Lazarus and Rucka.

    Absolutely in love with Lazarus. The politicking in the comic is so well executed and just elevates the intelligence of the book above most other books in the industry at the moment. Rucka said that the number of readers has plateaued a bit so I really hope more people will realise how excellent this is and pick it up!

    And I concur, the next two covers are beautiful. Really feel like they're stepping up the cover art from issue 11!

    This definitely has a potentially larger audience. If you look at the popular Urban Fantasy and YA dystopian heroines it's obvious to me that Lazarus easily falls in line with them. Too bad there aren't really that many cross over fans between the two mediums.

    I got into Lazarus because I was looking for Greg Rucka work and the cover looked so amazing to me. I'm not that big a fan of the technical work but having read thru 2 vol, color me a fan.

    Eve is, weirdly enough, how I pictured he'd write Laura from X-men. I do feel for Eve and for the people unlucky enough to live in that place. Plus with the recent additions of new characters (the doctor and the fighter) along with the familial fighting, I wanna see how this goes. Along with how the other Lazarus for the other families are.

    ...Dangit Imma go reread them.

    This has been an absolutely marvelous book thus far. Greg Rucka has created a world I want to learn more about (though never want to see become a reality).
